Orgullo is a mythical exploration of 7 legends surrounding the rise and fall of infamous Mexican President Santa Anna and his wild gum popping adventures defending against American "Manifest Destiny" and their seafaring, dessert raiding, lava walking imperialist forces at the height of the 1846-1848 invasion of Mexico. A part of the award winning 7 Deadly Sins Cycle.
